Telehealth with Children

Children that are given the opportunity to work online with a therapist are able to shae parts of themselves and their environment which they are unable to do through in-office visits. Often, they are having their sessions in a comfortable familiar space such as their bedroom. They are surrounded by familiar toys and art supplies. They can share personal experiences through photos and items of their choosing all while in a familiar setting. This can allow for a therapist to connect with the child and build trust in a very unique way. I am able to engage children with many additional techniques such as screen sharing, joint art activities and games.
